Don't Grow Weary

Representative Text

1 There is light and life forever,
Where the many mansions be,
And the spirit swells with longing,
There to dwell eternally.

Chorus:
Where the many mansions be,
We shall dwell eternally,
Where the many mansions lie,
We shall dwell eternally.

2 Mourning pilgrim, don't grow weary,
Hold thou on a few more years,
Labor on in Jesus' vineyard,
Tho' thy sowing be in tears. [Chorus]

3 Rising up from earthly sorrow,
We before the throne shall stand,
Where the angels sweetly welcome
To that land, that happy land. [Chorus]
